  • Panos Panay shared an image of himself using a Surface Duo.
  • The image also shows Panay wearing grey Surface Earbuds.
  • The Surface Duo doesn't have a public release date but is often shown off by Microsoft employees.

Microsoft and Windows hardware chief Panos Panay shared yet another shot of himself using a Surface Duo. This time, he's shown off lounging with the Surface Duo unfolded and rocking some dark grey Surface Earbuds.

We don't have an official release date for the Surface Duo, but it seems like a weekly occurrence that a Microsoft employee shares a photo with one. Photos of the Surface Duo also frequently include other Microsoft hardware, in this case the Surface Earbuds in grey. We already knew that the Surface Earbuds would come in a darker color, but this shot shows them off a bit.

The Surface Duo Panay is holding appears to have a bumper case on it as well, adding a bit more protection to the folding device without appearing to add much size.
